### 2/5 — terrible app

*2026-07-31, version 96.3.0*

genuinely can’t ever log in becz it says access denied and it’s a terrible app in general it so slow and stuff … just go to the store the app is a waste of time.

### 2/5 — Lists

*2026-07-31, version 96.3.0*

Please fix! Lists are not sorting as chosen. Used it today while shopping and had to refresh every time I checked a box for a completed item to get the aisles to sort properly. The app had always worked well prior to today.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2026-07-20, version 96.1.1*

Don’t bother. Clipping coupons is super easy and great to shop deals. When the freaking app works which is hardly ever. It’s 2026 and you have an app with this many issues? Can’t login orders get delayed all kinds of stuff because the “system is down”.  The app charges you twice for an order and doesn’t refund the money hold for multiple days. I cancelled my 100 boost membership don’t waste your time and money what a joke.

### 1/5 — New update

*2026-07-18, version 96.1.1*

New update took away the barcode scanner and made the app useless….why change something that works

### 1/5 — WORST APP !

*2026-07-11, version 96.0.0*

Keeps logging me out for NO reason

### 3/5 — Alt ID entry

*2026-07-10, version 96.0.0*

When you’re in the store and don’t have your phone or card number, your mobile number should be your alt ID by default and shouldn’t have to add it a second time in the app. Please fix this. This is what your competitor Safeway does. I shouldn’t have to pull out my phone at check out and pull up my card in the app.

I work in IT and see most store apps are not frictionless or are poorly designed to interact with main back office systems.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2026-07-05, version 95.3.0*

Recent update signed my account out and now won’t allow to login just get the dreaded spinning wheel.  Frustrating to say the least.

### 1/5 — Another thing I need in order to shop at Fry’s

*2026-07-05, version 95.3.0*

I already have to have a rewards card and now I need to have digital coupons… And by the way, the app doesn’t work It just keeps saying retry on every category… Making it hard to shop at Fry’s.

### 1/5 — Worse & worse

*2026-07-01, version 95.3.0*

This app just keeps getting worse with every single update. After the last update it won’t even tell me what aisle any of my items are found in. Just says “other”. It crashes all the time as well. It used to be helpful, not anymore.

### 1/5 — USELESS APP & WEBSITE

*2026-07-01, version 95.3.0*

Um hello Kroger…..it’s 2026 and you can’t even operate a simple app a 3 year old could put together, oh wait you did already. I understand the marketing ploy to get people to actually come into your Stores but this is ridiculous that a Company this large can’t put together a simple app. You make it so unnecessarily difficult and time consuming just dealing with your digital coupons that it’s not worth the effort and hassle. 
There is a Glitch in the Matrix!

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE

*2026-07-01, version 95.3.0*

I was trying to find a ball candy and every search I made it showed me absolute nonsense made me want to kill myself FIX YOUR APP FRYS😡

### 1/5 — App problems

*2026-06-28, version 95.3.0*

I haven’t had any problems for years and now all of a sudden the app will not let me sign in. I’ve tried deleting it and reinstalling several times. I’ve rebooted my iPhone. The sign in page just keeps trying to load with no avail. Refreshing the page hundreds of times does nothing. I can no longer shop at Fry’s because of this.

### 3/5 — In store lists feature isn’t as good after all the updates

*2026-06-28, version 95.3.0*

It’s a hassle to use now. It was one of the best features on this app, now it’s all buggy. If I want to check something off the list, I’d have to leave the page and come back to it each time.

### 1/5 — List is useless

*2026-06-28, version 95.3.0*

When you click on an item from the list, you can only add more of that item to the list and there’s no option to add to cart. What in the world kind of update is this? The list was already a pain. No one uses the list like a grocery list to check off items when they’ve been added to cart—this should be considered our “favorites”. I don’t know what kind of management is going on for the frys app but this is the dumbest update yet. Tell this person to stop coming up with ideas.

### 2/5 — Search

*2026-06-21, version 95.2.0*

Needs a little work on its search function. Searching for something as simple as panko breadcrumbs and it returns ramen, cooking spray and dried cilantro flakes?

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2026-06-18, version 95.2.0*

As of last week neither of my Kroger apps (Fry’s or Fred Meyer) work with my IPhone. It’s OK with my andoids and desk top. I used the app last week at Fred Meyer. I cannot sign in at all or get any images. HELP!!!! I doesn’t work on the website either. What happened?
I see others have the same problems. No fixes so I guess Kroger doesn’t want you to get any sale prices. It’s a carrot!!!  It’s on sale but not available. Grrrrr

### 1/5 — Doesn’t load anymore

*2026-06-15, version 95.1.0*

Always stuck loading even on Wi-Fi. The app doesn’t work on older iPhones and never loads. Everything is blank

### 1/5 — Recent Update Ruined App

*2026-08-24, version 97.2.0*

Scanning barcodes used to take you the item listing with price and deals.  Now it takes you out of the app (without warning) to the manufacturer’s website and going back to the app you’ll be at the scanning screen with a spinning loading icon that never updates.  App is almost useless now.

### 1/5 — Refuses to download

*2026-08-22, version 97.2.0*

The app just won’t download and every fry’s store is a dead zone for signal.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2026-08-19, version 97.2.0*

Your app sucks ever changing won’t clip the coupon, won’t take the pic of the digital coupon.  Just give the discount.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly!

*2026-08-18, version 97.2.0*

Every time I open this app, it shows me logged in, the option to sign out, etc. I go to clip a coupon and it says I need a loyalty account and makes me go through steps to sign up. This is almost every single time I use the app! It is so frustrating! And trying to link a number to a log in is a long shot! I have 2 numbers now because it keeps losing my other one and cosine service hasn’t been much help. I love the store, but the app really needs some help.

### 1/5 — So frustrating

*2026-08-18, version 97.1.0*

So slow and glitchy. Never updates and once in a while asks you about the substitutions. And sometimes nothing. No message nothing. with all the monitoring they are making they are not able to have a working app inves invest some money and do us a favor

### 1/5 — App needs to have aisle numbers listed for the item.

*2026-08-17, version 97.1.0*

Competitors list aisle numbers for the item, Fry’s does not. 

WiFi never works in store, even when connected to their WiFi. 

Also, when you scan the digital coupons, it never works, or reopens to the app itself and doesn’t take you to the specific item; you have to search for the item that has the digital coupons again, competitors apps allow you to scan and pull up the item/digital coupon right away.

What’s the point of having the scan digital coupon option only for it not to work

### 1/5 — They take your money then cancel your order

*2026-08-08, version 97.0.0*

They are system errors, where I place an order and then it cancels automatically because of their system error takes my money and now I have to wait 24 to 48 hours for them to release it back to me and I have no groceries and all that they can say is sorry for the inconvenience. Do better fry’s

### 1/5 — Your update stinks

*2026-08-02, version 96.3.0*

Just updated and can’t even get a code on time to reset the password that I’ve had for 20 yrs thanks but I know the old saying off to Safeway the safe way to shop. 
Get your systems fixed.

### 1/5 — No longer loads

*2026-08-01, version 96.3.0*

Used to be fine. Now just sits on the initial screen with grey boxes. Completely useless.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2026-07-28, version 96.2.0*

This app freezes every two minutes. who has time for that

### 5/5 — Great Community Store

*2026-08-17, version 97.1.0*

I’ve been taking my elderly Parents shopping at this location for a long time. Everyone is really nice to my Father and Mother and always smile and talk to them. If I go to the store without them they always ask how are they doing. Like I said, it’s a community store. Clean and professional it’s one of the best fry’s in the area. Raquel and her co-workers are awesome! Thank you!

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2026-07-09, version 96.0.0*

So far, I am not having any problems with the coupons and used the delivery option for the first time. Haven’t used in store yet. But I decided to rate anyway because the groceries were delivered quickly and will everything I listed. Also, the person delivering the groceries communicated with me so well that I just had to give this a five star rating. Usually, I have trouble with other delivery apps when it comes to communication, so this is a delightful change. Definitely recommend so far!

### 5/5 — Updated review with latest fixes

*2026-06-09, version 95.0.0*

I shop in store and want to use a list since you can sort by aisle. The app wants you to use a cart instead, which has no sort option. Ok I’ll build a cart and then copy to a list. Nope, now that’s broken and creates a 0 item list from a cart with multiple items.

Updated: it appears the issue with lists has been fixed and the app is excellent to use again!  Great work.

### 5/5 — Fry’s

*2026-03-05, version 92.0.0*

De lo bueno , lo mejor

### 5/5 — Never works in Store

*2026-01-28, version 90.2.0*

Every time you go in store, you lose most of the signal to your cell phone. This means that you can’t log into the app you can’t scan the barcodes into the app and make it work and suddenly they added the need for me to check my six digit code from an email that I don’t have on my cell phone so I couldn’t even log into the app

### 5/5 — App keeps crashing

*2025-10-29, version 87.2.1*

I can’t use app after new update. Keeps crashing and will not work for more than a minute no matter what I do.

### 5/5 — Review

*2025-09-16, version 86.1.0*

We have been pleased with your store and service for many years, great employees now, and several have retired Sue and many more. Always pleased with the young lady in the lobby of your store, I should but cannot remember her name ( I am old ) she gives us candy as we enter the store, as she promotes your card. She is very pleasant and helpful to all.                                               You can give her a hug for us. Frank & Betty

### 5/5 — Love the update

*2025-08-24, version 85.2.0*

They finally updated it back to me being able to use the “pick up” option to see what my list total will actually be after discounts and coupons! I was incredibly upset when the pickup option to view my cart was gone and not working it made grocery shopping on a budget really hard since I had to calculate my total myself but I’m glad I don’t have to do that anymore!

### 5/5 — Love the deals

*2025-08-13, version 85.1.0*

Hard to use!!

### 5/5 — Fry’s grocery store

*2025-01-20, version 78.1*
